A minot is a non-SI unit of measure used to quantify luminous flux. Specifically, it is defined as the luminous flux emitted in a solid angle of one steradian by a point source that has a luminous intensity of one candela. In practical terms, one minot is equal to one lumen per steradian (1 minot = 1 lumen/sr). This unit is not commonly used in modern lighting science, where the lumen and candela are more prevalent.
